Dr. Peacock and His Quest to Know God Gustav Shakefoot

"... You may ask me for anything in my name and I will do it." (John 14:12-14 NIV) If the words of Jesus are promises that he will do whatever we ask in His name, then why are many not seeing the results? Dr. Peacock and His Quest to Know God offers an in-depth examination of life's everyday incidents and events that have the potential to create better ways to know God. Gustav Shakefoot combines personal essays with biblical teachings as he traces the path of a thoughtful spiritual journey. Shakefoot begins his examination of Christianity by providing details on the books of the Bible and then shares his perspective on many Christian topics including the effects of baptism, the importance of the forgiveness of sins, and the complexity of salvation. While interspersing essays about his religious upbringing, army exploits, and his stint in a monastery, Shakefoot explores such complex and controversial issues as communication with the Holy Spirit, homosexuality, and identity problems within the church. The unique perspective shared in Dr. Peacock and His Quest to Know God can help anyone enhance their relationship with God and achieve their eternal purpose.
